Men may put up a stern-macho exterior, but they like taking care of their skin and sometimes it can be a daunting experience. So, here are some skincare tips for men.

Keep your skin clean:

To help you get a clean shaven look and prevent acne and pimples, it is important to have clean skin. So, wash your face at night to get rid of the excess oil and dust that you may pick up during the day. This will help you with get a clean shave and avoid cuts.

Exfoliate

Exfoliation is a great way to achieve glowing skin. This process gets rid of dead cells and improves circulation. Exfoliate everyday to enhance the radiance of your skin.

Moisturiser:

It is important to moisturise, but excess moisturiser can lead to skin problems, due to clogged pores. Try using a light moisturiser after a shave and before going to bed. This helps to prevent irritation of the skin.

Acne:

When you have more that four–five pimples, it is acne. This skin condition is prevalent amongst teenagers, but a lot of adults also suffer from acne as well. Avoid products that trigger acne, follow a balanced diet to reduce the inflammation of the skin, chew your food properly and avoid oily, spicy and pungent food. Also, drink a lot of liquids.

Blackheads are a precursor to acne as they attract bacteria, dead cells and oil. Blackheads are triggered by hormones and appear on the nose, forehead and cheekbones. Clean the skin regularly with a good facewash and avoid spending too much of time in the sun. Use nose strips to get rid of the blackheads.

Pores:

Visible holes on the skin and around the nose are known as open pores. It is important to maintain the hygiene of the skin to prevent acne and skin infection. Drink water, exfoliate your skin and apply a light moisturiser to get rid of open pores. Clean pores are less visible.
